Two of the most interesting performers in pop music, Janelle Monáe and Kimbra, have announced a co-headline tour.
The two first met in 2013, when they were both performing at the Montreux Jazz Festival. They happened to run into each other in a Swiss hotel bar, and bonded over a shared love of Prince — before long, their bands were jamming together, and suddenly tour dates were being locked in.
